Abstract:
A flash memory array using the same device and a method of fabricating the same are provided to solve the interference of stored bit and improve the degree of integration by using a vertical structure to fabricate a charge storage region and a region having a gate insulating layer in self-alignment. A flash memory device with a split gate over a recessed channel comprises a source/drain region(12a) on a semiconductor substrate; a recessed channel region between the source and the drain; a separation gate(50a) between the channel region and a first insulating layer; a second isolating layer formed on the separation gate; a third insulating layer formed on the both channel region, not contacted with the separation gate; a charge storage region(70a) formed on the third insulating layer; a forth insulating layer formed on the source and drain region; a program gate formed on the fourth and second insulating layer, between the charge storage region and the fifth insulating layer.
